Hepatic angiosarcoma associated with disseminated intravascular coagulation.
We present a case of hepatic angiosarcoma that presented with disseminated intravascular coagulopathy to highlight the difficulty in diagnosing this disease due its aggressive clinical course, the overlapping features of various coagulopathies, and the nonspecific appearance of angiosarcomas on imaging.

DR J. SHAUN MURPHY: A 30-year-old woman was found to have human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) at age 22 (1989). She also had a history of moderate asthma. She had been in her usual health until 2 months before hospitalization when nonbloody diarrhea appeared. A month later, she noted a small, yellow mass arising from her umbilicus (Figure 1).

متن کاملPrimary Hepatic Angiosarcoma Mimicking Multifocal Liver Abscess with Disseminated Intravascular Coagulation and Hemoperitoneum
Primary hepatic angiosarcoma (PHA), a rare and aggressive malignancy, has rarely been reported to present with disseminated intravascular coagulation with liver hemorrhage. Incidence is estimated at 0.5-2.5 cases per 10,000,000. To our knowledge, it has not been reported to mimic liver abscess with a septic presentation. Advanced imaging techniques may aid in the diagnosis, though biopsy with m...
متن کاملComparison of immunosuppressive and cytotoxic cells in angiosarcoma: development of a possible supportive therapy for angiosarcoma.
An imbalance of immunosuppressive and cytotoxic cells plays an important role in inhibiting the anti-tumor immune response of the tumor-bearing host. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the involvement of immunosuppressive cells, such as regulatory T cells and CD163+ M2 macrophages as well as cytotoxic cells, such as granulysin-bearing cells and TIA-1+ cells in cutaneous angiosarcoma (AS...
